Fray Check Method

File Type：pdf, Size：1020Kb

There are three different ways to seal the ends of your ribbon. First, you can use “Fray Check”. Second, you can use a lighter. And third, you can use a wood-burning tool. All three of these methods will be demonstrated and you can decide which works best for you. I use all three methods, depending on the project that I’m working on. FRAY CHECK METHOD You can use “Fray Check” on Grosgrain Ribbon & Double Ruffle Ribbon. I chose not to even demonstrate “Fray Check” on Chiffon (Organza) because it leaves such an awful film that it’s very unattractive on the bow. Generally, I only use “Fray Check” on Korker hair bows.

This will take a little practice, so use a spare piece of ribbon first. GROSGRAIN: Use the same technique as above, only with Grosgrain ribbon, you can move the lighter along the ribbon a little slower. DOUBLE RUFFLE: Use the same technique as with the Grosgrain Ribbon. SEALING RIBBON ENDS - Copyright 2006, Tricks of the Trade ©---- Page 2 WOOD-BURNING TOOL METHOD CHIFFON: Using the “Universal Tip” of your Wood-Burning Tool, place your ribbon on a cookie sheet. With the chiffon or organza ribbon, you will need to slide your tip along the edge of the ruler very quickly. It will leave a very nice, clean, and sealed edge! You may want to practice on a spare piece of ribbon. GROSGRAIN: With grosgrain ribbon, you use the same technique as above, except you will move the tip of the Wood-Burning Tool along the edge of the ruler a little slower. Grosgrain ribbon is much thicker than chiffon (organza), so it takes a little longer to make the cut. Practice with this a few times on a spare piece of ribbon. DOUBLE RUFFLE: With Double Ruffle Ribbon, use the same method as with the Grosgrain Ribbon. However, make sure that the ruler is close to the edge of the ribbon. Otherwise, you have too much “bunched up” ribbon to have to try and keep out of the way of the Wood-Burning Tool. Practice on a spare piece of ribbon.

The Haskell Silk Company: Manufacturers of Staple Silks Recognized As a "Standard" in the Trade by Jacqueline Field Haskell Silk Company founder, James Haskell, was a native of the Cape Anne, area of Massachusetts.1 In this locale his early career included service in numerous public and business capacities, not least as agent for The Rockport Steam Cotton Company, and as a State Senator.2 He was a man experienced in politics, finance and textile production. He moved to Maine in 1858 when he acquired the cotton mill at Saccarappa Falls, Westbrook.3 Under his management the mill, renamed The Westbrook Manufacturing Company, flourished and expanded. In 1874, his elder son, Frank Haskell, assumed the role of agent. At the same time James took advantage of, by now, well developed machine twist-making technology and launched into the youngest branch of the textile industry--silk.

The process of fine tuning the uniform regulations to accommodate the various functions of the park ranger began in the 1930s. Until then there was only one uniform and the main focus seemed to be in trying to differentiate between the officers and the lowly rangers. The former were authorized to have their uniforms made of finer material (Elastique versus heavy wool for the ranger), and extraneous decorations of all kinds were hung on the coat to distinguish one from the other. The ranger's uniform was used for all functions where recognition was desirable: dress; patrol (when the possibility of contact with the public existed), and various other duties, such as firefighting.

Published February, 1919. J. S. Gushing Co. — Berwick & Smith Co. Norwood, Mass., U.S.A. ; 155688 PREFACE This book has been written primarily to meet a need arising from the introduction of the study of textiles into the curriculum of the high school. The aim has been, there- fore, to present the subject matter in a form sufficiently simple and interesting to be grasped readily by the high school student, without sacrificing essential facts. It has not seemed desirable to explain in detail the mechanism of the various machines used in modern textile industries, but rather to show the student that the fundamental principles of textile manufacture found in the simple machines of primitive times are unchanged in the highl}^ developed and complicated machinerj^ of to-day. Minor emphasis has been given to certain necessarily technical paragraphs by printing these in type of a smaller size than that used for the body of the text.
